Storyline

When the pressure to be royally perfect becomes too much for Mal, she returns to her rotten roots on the Isle of the Lost where her archenemy Uma, the daughter of Ursula from The Little Mermaid, has taken her spot as self-proclaimed queen of the run-down town. Uma, still resentful over not being selected by Ben to go to Auradon Prep with the other Villain Kids, stirs her pirate gang including Captain Hook's son Harry and Gaston's son Gil, to break the barrier between the Isle of the Lost and Auradon, and unleash all the villains imprisoned on the Isle once and for all.

Goofs

This movie takes place six month after the first "Descendants". Yet in both movies it is summer. Enchanted country or not, they should have more than one season.

User Reviews

Amazing

Descendants 2, a sequel to the brilliant Descendants shown in 2015. I was glad to see more of the Isle in this film as it shows what surroundings the VKs grew up with. The music to this film was absolutely astonishing and there was no disappointment. It definitely lived up to the first one. Also the costumes were on fleek! I cannot wait to see if there is a descendants number 3 and I would recommend anyone who loves Disney and musicals, especially high school musical, to watch this magnificent film. However there were a few things I was slightly disappointed within the film but nothing that made me dislike the film completely.
